Movie of the Day – Starship Troopers

The only good bug is a dead bug.

Sweet Jesus Starship Troopers is one of the best, bad movie around.  For a movie made in 1997, this is damn spectacle to behold.  Nothing like seeing this movies in theaters and being blown away that this was a PG-13 movie and it had such excessive gore, tits and bloody violent as hell.  I mean we are talking about shit that 12 year old (my age at the time) shouldn’t even be seeing until maybe 13, but then again my first R-rated movie was Predator and that was at 5.  Still though, I was 5 and could only comprehend pretty lights and loud sounds.

Anyways, Starship Troopers is just the most militaristic, chest thumping movie around, but it is extremely satirical movie about militarism and does so in the most gloriously ridiculous way possible.  Hit the jump if you would like to know more.

Movie of the Day – Tremors
